In August 2022, University of the Pacific transitioned to virtual parking permits for both long-term and hourly parking to modernize operations and provide a better experience for students, employees and visitors (Physical decals will no longer be issued). Details for purchasing permits are below.

Parking lot permits are enforced Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the Stockton Campus and 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on the Sacramento Campus year-round.  Parking Lots are designated as A, B or C. Vehicles without the correct parking permit may be cited.
